Just ordered a Benchmade Shoki, anyone have one? What are your thoughts about it. I wear a suit to work everyday and think it will be a perfect gentleman's knife, thanks.
 
I love mine. Wouldn't mind if it had a pocket clip instead of the pouch, but the pouch is nice.
 
I love mine as well! However I really like the sheath-clip. I in general prefer a knife without a clip in the hand, but appreciate the functionality of a clip, so this is the best of both worlds :D The sheath also comes in handy for carrying my Queen mini-folding hunter, which is this:

That is also a great knife (mine is actually in birdseye maple though)! It has a linerlock which I think is great, and overall it's a really nice knife for just $50. Made in the USA AND a D2 blade :eek: (I consider it my work knife because it's tough, inexpensive, and easily replaceable - doesn't mean I love it any less than my others though, just means I push it harder, and worry about it less! haha)
 
My modification on my 1st Production Shoki. I really don't like the leather pouch. So I drilled to small holes using the guides from a Benchmade 690 Clip (i ordered and extra clip). The clip fits perfect. I put red loctite so the screws wont come loose.

I looks and feels awesome with the clip!!! Love it even more!!!

(Also, I still haven't had a problem with the nak-lock to this day. There is a minute bit of vertical blade play).

It is a nice knife. I do not have one. Sure should do something about that soon.
 
I bought 2 of them! I love the design except for the lanyard hole which I might grind off.
